Rikter: My local club uses NASA's classing system. No, not the space program guys, the National Auto Sport Association. Their system is much simpler than SCCA's, and a bit more forgiving. You start out in a base class with cars of similar potential, and each of your modifications has a point value. When you accumulate enough mod points, you're bumped up to the next class. As she sits today, Sadie is still stockish enough that she's in G class, but when some parts that have been languishing in the garage floor get installed I'll be in F. In comparison, the simple fact that I have 300ZX front brakes would, IIRC, put me in Street Mod in SCCA, where I wouldn't be remotely competitive.
